A minimal monomial ideal is the combinatorially simplest monomial ideal whose lcm-lattice equals a given finite atomic lattice $\hat{L}$. The minimal ideal inherits many nice properties of any ideal $I$ whose lcm-lattice also equals…

We survey some recent results on the minimal graded free resolution of a square-free monomial ideal. The theme uniting these results is the point-of-view that the generators of a monomial ideal correspond to the maximal faces (the facets)…

We ask for a given system of polynomials f_1,...,f_n and f over the complex numbers when there exist continuous functions q_1,...,q_n such that q_1 f_1+...+q_n f_n = f. This condition defines the continuous closure of an ideal. We give…

Given a square-free monomial ideal $I$, we define a simplicial complex labeled by the generators of $I^2$ which supports a free resolution of $I^2$. As a consequence, we obtain (sharp) upper bounds on the Betti numbers of the second power…

Let $\Bbbk$ be a field and let $I$ be a monomial ideal in the polynomial ring $Q=\Bbbk[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. In her thesis, Taylor introduced a complex which provides a finite free resolution for $Q/I$ as a $Q$-module. Later, Gemeda constructed…

Let $C \subset {\bf N}^d$ be an affine semigroup, and $R=K[C]$ its semigroup ring. This paper is a collection of various results on "$C$-graded" $R$-modules, especially, monomial ideals. For example, we show the following: If $R$ is normal…

Each monomial ideal over a polynomial ring admits a free resolution which has the structure of a DG-algebra, namely, the Taylor resolution. A pivot resolution of a monomial ideal, which we introduce, is a resolution that is always shorter…

We study when Taylor resolutions of monomial ideals are minimal. We consider monomial ideals with linear quotients. In particular, we determine precisely the stable ideals and the monomial ideals with linear resolutions having the miminal…

Let X be a topological space, and let C(X) be the complex of singular cochains on X with real coefficients. We denote by Cc(X) the subcomplex given by continuous cochains, i.e. by such cochains whose restriction to the space of simplices…

We show that the regularity of monomial ideals whose associated prime ideals are totally ordered by inclusion is linearly bounded.

Toward a partial classification of monomial ideals with $d$-linear resolution, in this paper, some classes of $d$-uniform clutters which do not have linear resolution, but every proper subclutter of them has a $d$-linear resolution, are…

We show that a monomial ideal $I$ has projective dimension $\leq$ 1 if and only if the minimal free resolution of $S/I$ is supported on a graph that is a tree. This is done by constructing specific graphs which support the resolution of the…

Results on matrix canonical forms are used to give a complete description of the higher rank numerical range of matrices arising from the study of quantum error correction. It is shown that the set can be obtained as the intersection of…

An ideal of polynomials is symmetric if it is closed under permutations of variables. We relate general symmetric ideals to the so called Specht ideals generated by all Specht polynomials of a given shape. We show a connection between the…

In this paper we study monomial ideals attached to posets, introduce generalized Hibi rings and investigate their algebraic and homological properties. The main tools to study these objects are Groebner basis theory, the concept of…

In this paper we investigate the question of normality for special monomial ideals in a polynomial ring over a field. We first include some expository sections that give the basics on the integral closure of a ideal, the Rees algebra on an…

For strongly connected, pure $n$-dimensional regular CW-complexes, we show that {\it evenness} (each $(n{-}1)$-cell is contained in an even number of $n$-cells) is equivalent to generalizations of both cycle decomposition and…

Let $K$ be a field. We attach to each finite poset $\mathbb P$ a von Neumann regular $K$-algebra $Q_K(\mathbb P)$ in a functorial way. We show that the monoid of isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective $Q_K(\mathbb P)$-modules…

Suppose that $f: Y\to X$ is a proper, dominant, tamely ramified morphism of algebraic surfaces, over a perfect field. We show that it is possible to perform sequences of monoidal transforms $Y'\to Y$ and $X'\to X$ to obtain an induced…

For every simplicial complex X, we construct a locally CAT(0) cubical complex T_X, a cellular isometric involution i on T_X and a map t_X from T_X to X with the following properties: t_Xi = t_X; t_X is a homology isomorphism; the induced…
